Most of the PNGs are in the 70-80k range
yes, that was my mistake, sorry. i was misled by the .djvu version, where most of the pages are <10k. (i've _got_ to see how to use that!) of course, at 30 megs per book -- gosh, i remember when 30 megs was a good-sized _hard-drive_! :+) -- we see why project gutenberg has never put all its scans online. distributed proofreaders keeps _saying_ that they are going to, but as of yet, they haven't done it. d.p. still seems to be constrained by disk-space, even with generous help from ibiblio and internet archive. -bowerbird
